Notes: The cemetery is quite large and can be difficult to navigate, a detailed map from the office can be extremely helpful. Check cemetery website for office and gate hours.

Born in Horodetz, Lita circa 1855. He arrived around the turn of the century with his family. Most are buried in that chelka as well. With the exception of a daughter who stayed behind and was murdered and my Great-grandfather who is on har hazeisim.

He led the Horodetzer kehilla on the LES and was mesayem shas several times in the shiurim that he gave.

Although in books it is credited to others, reliable sources give over that the Young Israel movement was conceived and was “born” in his dining room.
